<br>Spotted On Shelves...
<br>
<br>V8 V-Fusion Light, Pomegranate Blueberry - Oh, YUM! This beverage is 
<br>FANTASTIC. Drink it straight, mix it with Sprite Zero, or spike your FRS with 
<br>it. A 1-cup serving contains 50 calories, 0g fat, 13g carbs, 0g fiber, and 0g 
<br>protein (POINTS&reg; value 1*). It's fruity and DELICIOUS! 
<br>
<br>Hostess 100 Calorie Packs, Strawberry Cake with Cream Cheese Icing and 
<br>Creamy Filling - We mentioned the new Twinkie Bites a few weeks back, but 
<br>now these strawberry cakes have been seen on shelves as well. If itty bitty 
<br>creme-filled cakes are your thing, YOU are in for some fun. Each 3-cake 
<br>pack has 2.5g fat, 22g carbs, a whopping 4g fiber, and 2g protein (POINTS&reg; 
<br>value 1*). Delicious, cute, once-in-a-while treats. We just wish they were

<br>
<br>Sara Lee Garlic Herb Chicken Breast and Hickory Smoked Ham - If you're 
<br>protein-seekers (we are!), you'll want to check these out. Lots of flavor for 
<br>not a lot of fat and calories. Swallow 4 slices for 50 - 60 calories, 0.5 - 1.5g 
<br>fat, 0 - 2g carbs, 0g fiber, and 8 - 11g protein (POINTS&reg; value 1*). Good

<br>Post-Workout Snacking a No-No?
<br>
<br>Are you the type that quickly gobbles up food immediately after working out? 
<br>Not so fast, Chompy. Two separate studies found that eating (or consuming 
<br>high-carb drinks) after working out may actually hamper weight loss. Serious 
<br>athletes are often encouraged to "fill their tanks" with food after working out, 
<br>but the rest of us regular people (a.k.a. casual exercisers) should steer clear 
<br>of replenishing those calories we burn, at least for a few hours. According to 
<br>experts, in order to reap and maintain the benefits of your workout, your 
<br>body should remain in calorie deficit. So hopping off the treadmill and 
<br>prancing straight into the kitchen = a bad idea if you're trying to drop a few 
<br>lbs. Another study suggests that timing isn't the issue. Instead, the amount of 
<br>calories consumed -- specifically the amount from carbs -- proved to be the 
<br>dominant factor in the lasting benefits of the exercise. Click here for more on 
<br>this.

<br>about HG and WIN LOTS OF PRIZES. Our 600,000th Subscriber Contest 
<br>continues. Click for the full details. ***Do you believe in the five-second 
<br>rule? You're not alone. According to poll results in Parade magazine, 53% of 
<br>Americans will happily chew food that has fallen on the floor as long as it 
<br>stays there for five seconds or less. Um, EWWW. ***You've probably heard 
<br>that breakfast-eaters take in fewer calories throughout the day, but a new 
<br>study shows that as your b-fast calories increase, so do the calories you 
<br>consume during the rest of the day. So eat that morning meal, but don't 
<br>overdo it. And guess what? That's all we've got. HG out!
